For the 2WD sub-models, the removal is done by first removing the
Spindle after which unscrewing of the snap ring from the lower ball joint which practically means that the lower ball joint is removed from the spindle first. Use a special C-frame assembly tool in combination with the correct receiving cup to press the lower ball joint out of the spindle; if you do not have a suitable cup, contact a dealership or machine shop. Like the lower ball joint, the tool setup is repeated on the upper balljoint and pressed out too. When fitting the upper balljoint, use the C-frame assembly and the receiver cup to tighten the screw until fully seated, to avoid the heating of the parts. Further ontinine with the same tolls as above, press the lower balljoint into the axle until it is flush then fit the lower balljoint snap ring. For 4WD models, the tasks include the elimination of the spindle, axleshaft, and its joint, further, they need to dismantle the cotter pin and nut of the tie-rod. Shunt the snap ring from the above ball joint and the screw of pinch bolt also the cotter pin was removed and the nut was loosened of the lower ball joint. Tap on the inside of the steering knuckle close to each balljoint to release the axle arm fro mthe car and unbolt the camber adjuster sleeve, put a mark on it so that it can easily be realigned. Lose the nut on the lower ball joint and mount the steering knuckle in a vise to extract the snap ring from the lower ball joint socket. Utilize the C-frame assembly tool for pressing out the lower balljoint; do the same for the upper one. All the dust and debris around and inside the steering knuckle balljoint bores must then be removed, then the lower balljoint slot must then be aligned with the knuckle and the C-frame assembly that is to be placed in is then inserted and set in its position with a slight press. Insert lower balljoint snap ring and again perform the procedure for upper balljoint. Replace the camber adjuster on its right place so that the arrow provides correct indications for camber correction. Position the steering knuckle as the camber adjuster was set without moving it; torque the lower ball joint with a new nut; add a cotter pin. Fit the tie-rod end to the knuckle, then nut the tie-rod and put a new cotter pin to keep the nut tight. Reverse the above removal process to complete the installation and take the front end alignment.
